  • There’s so much to rave about — I don’t even know where to start. Ms. Cathy is our wonderful director — a woman of action who clearly lives for this school and all it encompasses. Her passion is contagious, and it shines through in her incredible staff. The leads, the assistants, the admins, the volunteers — everyone is rowing in the same direction, with the same goal: to ensure our babies are loved, well taken care of, and learning in a safe environment. Communication is a big one for me, and the doors are always open. Whether in person, over the phone, through the app, or via email, they always find (or make) the time for you. We’ve been part of this school for a few years now, and with a few more to go, we couldn’t be happier.

  • Cannot recommend this school highly enough!! We loved stepping stone and had a wonderful experience there. The school made my child feel welcome, safe, and cared for. There was always clear communication about my child’s progress. Only left due to moving out of the area.

  • Love this place. My three-year-old blossomed at Steppingstone Montessori, gained confidence, become more independent and truly excited to learn each day. We are impressed with the progress he made in language skills and social development thanks to the engaging curriculum and caring teachers. We appreciate the positive and nurturing environment at SSM. Our child feels safe, happy, and encouraged to explore his potential. We've been impressed by communication and support from staff at SSM .They're always available to answer our questions and provide updated our child's progress. I Highly recommend SSM for best of your kid's future.

  • Our son has been attending Stepping Stone Montessori for 4 years and we are so happy. The teachers are incredibly patient and nurturing, and they truly understand how to tailor the Montessori method to each child's needs. Our son has become more confident and independent. He loves exploring new activities and always comes home excited to share what he learned. The school fosters a strong sense of community, and we feel so welcomed by the staff. The classrooms are beautifully designed to encourage creativity and focus. The director of School, Ms. Cathy, is deeply committed to ensuring every child thrives. Their passion for Montessori education is evident in the way they guide the school and support families. The non teaching staff, from the office team to the maintenance crew, are warm and approachable. They always greet families with a smile and are quick to address any questions or concerns. It's clear that the director and the entire staff work seamlessly to create a nurturing, well organized environment. Their dedication contributed to the school's welcoming atmosphere. we highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a supportive and enriching Montessori environment. It has truly been a wonderful experience for our family.

  • I only have the best things to say about this school! My daughter has been attending for around 2 years now and I can say she is learning things beyond her age group and is grasping onto everything. It truly feels like a home and not a school. Everyone is so welcoming and patient with all the children so you can trust your children are in good hands. They are a very inclusive school and have many celebrations throughout the year for all cultures. All around this school is just amazing and we love being apart of it!

  • We LOVE LOVE LOVE our teachers here at Stepping stone. Our daughter loves being able to explore and play with materials each day that keep her engaged and stimulate learning new skills. We knew from the first tour that the pristine cleanliness of the school, the fundamentals of their learning program and inviting environment created by the director and staff members was a place that our daughter would thrive. For any families considering starting their little one’s journey or making the switch to the stepping stone family I would highly recommend! We are excited for the years to come.
